That is a cool knife, are those a lot of work to make or what sort of tools do you need to do it is what I mean?

There not hard to make I can make one in a hour if rushed but I like to take a few to make them look pretty. the basic tools are a forge either gas or coal you can also use a oxy/ac with a Rose bud tip but that will take alot of fuel. A good 2 # hammer and a anvil . And if you want to get all fancy like use a belt sander for the final shaping and then a knife sander to set the edge

I have been hammering these out at work for Years....don't use a Forge...got all the free Acetylene and Oxygen I need...along with Vises and Anvils....they are fun to make...and will hold a great edge after being tempered back after forging...just banged this out for a Friend this week

As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up ways to kill one another.Why do you think we invented politics and religion.

I like the blade design you have on the knife.Looks as though it would be a good skinner.  '  Frank
